Madame X emailed me the other day to tell me about a clever idea she had – to offer up personal ads so that readers would be able to meet one another (here’s how to participate) and perhaps make a love connection. Or they could just meet up, have some coffee, and make a friend connection. Either way, it’s a fun way to meet some new people on the internet that doesn’t require a credit card.

Her series is called Money Match and so far there have been two people profiled. As you’ll soon find out, while Madame X is a New Yorker, participants don’t have to be.

The first participant is someone Madame X dubbed SuperCop and he’s been a state police officer since 2004.

The second participant, including photo, is a frugal lady named “IM” from Chicago. “Im a frugal girl at heart who loves nice stuff but loves her bank balance a little more. Im 28 and already own two properties, one investment and one condo. All of that was only possible by saving and not falling prey to crazy consumerism.”
